Product Description
Former U.S. Navy SEAL, Jake Palmer, is searching for something to fill the void in his life, a void present since he left the Navy ten years earlier. Neither his previous work as a corporate attorney nor his string of short-term personal relationships filled the indefinable emptiness. When a former colleague at B&A Pharmaceuticals asks Palmer to investigate the deaths of a physician researcher and his nurse in a car crash in southwest England, he is reluctant but accepts the assignment. Palmer is teamed with Fiona Collins, a tenacious B&A research auditor. Collins believes Palmer’s role is to observe and assist her in auditing the deceased physician’s clinical research records, assistance she neither needs nor wants. While Palmer believes the sooner Collins completes her audit, the sooner he can commence his investigation into the deaths. They travel to a small town on the Cornish coast and follow a trail of evidence that leads them to London, where they become entangled in a web of deceit, ambition and murder. With their lives in imminent danger, Palmer must confront his demons and bring those responsible to justice, even if it means killing them.
Customer Reviews
From the beginning to the ending, Libido's Twist has all the elements of a successful novel: a variety of intriguing settings, a well-crafted story filled with suspense, and a relevant meaning for the reader. The author obviously knows his subject matter; and for those of us living in the era of powerful drug companies, who must keep bringing the next miracle medication to the public or see their profits diminish, the story will remind us that not all so-called statistical studies are based on fact. The characters, especially Jake Palmer, the investigator who "stalks" the drug company in question, are believable and well developed, so that the reader is drawn into the story. All in all, a good read and hopefully, the first in a series---
